After a very successful inaugural Friends of Pātaka Arts Trail in March 2018, both artists and public asked that this be an annual event. Plans are well underway for the 2019 event over the weekend 16th and 17th March. Artists from Pukerua Bay to Tawa are invited to register.

The trail shows off arts/craftspeople from the many different creative disciplines and cultures that are often hidden from general public view and offers the viewer an opportunity to see and buy work being created in the various studios and workspaces. Trail brochures will be available from the beginning of March 2019.
